Intel is deploying a fairly ambitious strategy for the tablet segment, especially in the last year, where we have seen a large number of computers with Windows 8.1 that used some version of its chip Bay Trail. However, the manufacturer has also lavished on the Android platform, building an interesting alliance with Lenovo for the latest Yoga.
Many people in the sector were clear that Intel was the key to get Windows tablets to catch up, in terms of prices and energy efficiency, at the level of Android or iPad, all without losing the characteristics that make Microsoft's main platform distinctive, especially, given the Windows RT failure. Although some manufacturers have failed in the execution, allowing to run a desktop version very little optimized for touch screens, the integration of versions in Windows 10 and the technology that Intel contributes, promises to give a new push to those of Redmond within the sector.
Domain on Windows, advance on Android
The enormous variety of Intel processors is, today, the key to the proper functioning of the absolute majority of Windows tablets, however, in terms of Android, the manufacturer must deal with the good reputation of other firms such as Qualcomm or Nvidia.
In this area, his alliance with Lenovo has been basic and the enormous potential of the Chinese firm assures it a visible position, although also Samsung and especially Asus They have sought specific collaborations with the chipmaker.
A day between tablets thanks to Intel
Intel has organized a meeting with the press or users interested in Mur Cafe, a cozy place located in front of the Plaza de los Cubos in Madrid. We have spent this morning there and we have been able to fiddle with one of the many test tablets, but the meeting lasts until 22 hours and it is open to all the public. So, if anyone is interested in approaching and testing any of the equipment, write down this address: Cristino Martos Square, 2. Metro Plaza de España or Ventura Rodríguez.
